The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) recently posted an updated nineteen page Medicare Learning Network SNF Billing Reference booklet. The booklet focuses on fee-for-service Medicare Part A and Part B coverage and billing topics. SNF billers and other interested staff are encouraged to review this updated booklet.
The “Medicare-Covered SNF Stay” section covers skilled services, coverage requirements, Part A benefit exhaustion, benefit period, and communicating with beneficiaries topics. The “SNF Payment” section covers Medicare Part A (including consolidated billing), and Part B. The “SNF Billing Requirements” section offers billing tips, and describes special billing situations such as: readmissions within 30 days, benefits exhausted, no payment billing, expedited review results, non-covered days, and other billing situations. The document also contains a list of resource web pages for additional reference.
